About Reprieve
Reprieve is a UK charity founded in 1999. Reprieve uses strategic interventions to end the use of the death penalty globally, and to end extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”.
Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society, as it is in their cases that human rights are most swiftly jettisoned and the rule of law is cast aside. Thus, Reprieve promotes and protects the rights of those facing the death penalty and those who are the victims of extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”, with a focus on arbitrary detention, torture, and extrajudicial executions.
Reprieve’s main office is in London, UK. Reprieve also supports full-time Fellows, who work as lawyers, investigators and campaigners in the countries in which we work. We work closely with a number of partner organisations in jurisdictions all over the world, who provide access to clients, expertise, knowledge and guidance on specific issues or regions. We work in cooperation with relevant government officials, individual lawyers and human rights defenders, as well as individual, corporate and foundation funders to further the cause of our shared goals.

You will oversee the delivery and implementation of Reprieve’s recently launched Mass Engagement strategy. You will be energised to bring your skills, experience and knowledge to implement and deliver these plans, testing opportunities to diversify and grow the programme.
The Mass Engagement team works closely with the wider Development Team and colleagues across the organisation, supporting each other to reach their objectives.
About you
You will have a deep level of skill and expertise in mass fundraising, either through Individual Giving, Digital or Community and Events, with demonstrable experience managing a budget and making decisions about the best use of resources to deliver income targets.

You will be able to demonstrate that you can oversee complex work streams and competing priorities, while supporting, inspiring and empowering your team to achieve targets.
Your passion in engaging people in the work of Reprieve; centring the hopes, needs and experiences of people we exist to support, supporting the work of our courageous partners and in furthering Reprieve’s mission, will be evident

Founded in 2010 on the initiative of Lord (Brian) Griffiths of Fforestfach, The Centre for Enterprise, Markets and Ethics seeks to address some of the challenges facing twenty-first century capitalism. Our contribution comes from the promotion of the market economy from a Christian perspective within a framework of calling, integrity and ethical behaviour leading to the transformation of business enterprise and contributing to the relief of poverty.
Our focus is on:
· The moral basis of wealth creation
· Profit, taxation and enterprise
· Vocation to business
· Philanthropy and social welfare
· Ethical challenges
The activities of the Centre include:

To review our publications, please click here.
Over the past 14 years we have seen the consensus broaden around the fact that business is essential to society for growth, employment and opportunity. However, it is widely recognised that it can only be built effectively upon ethical frameworks.
Sitting at the intersection of business, economics and theology, we aspire to reach increasing numbers of senior executives and leaders from across business, the church, academia, and wider society with ethical frameworks of thinking that relate to the real world. We want to influence opinion formers and equip those in business to think through those issues that are relevant to them.
It is in this context that we seek a leader who:
· Is a Christian with a strong personal faith, committed to developing a Christian worldview based on the Bible and relevant to contemporary economic, social and political issues.
· Has a professional background including working at a senior level in relation to matters that are relevant to the work of CEME (e.g. business, public policy or economic or theological research).
